« on: December 24, 2019, 04:18:57 PM »

It doesn't look very "OEM", but sure is a nice job!

Pretty sure that is after market or custom.  In my opinion, an improvement over the original.  Very nice!

 Looks like a Guiliana seat. Nice and desirable.

You don't need to buy a new seat, run that one, it's good!

Looks like a very nice aftermarket upgrade to the original seat.  If you go back to stock, definitely sell the one in the picture.  Plenty of folks will be interested in buying it.

Finally found some information. Its Giuliari seat made for cb650 this is why it fits perfectly on my bike. Aftermarket part but really well made so I will keep it   ;D
